Em befriended Lizzy Hoo a year ago while working at The Melbourne Comedy Festival’s Great Debate. As you’ll hear inside, it's been a while since they acted on their new found friendship, but at least when they eventually did, they invited us to be there to listen in, HUZZAH! Lizzy is a writer, equal parts noodle and pie enthusiast, designer, actor, sport enthusiast and a stand up comedian who recently hosted the Melbourne Comedy Festival Gala, which is now streaming on ABC iView. Inside she’ll reveal how she and Em first met, why she did the pivot from her day job working as an account manager in marketing to becoming a full time stand up comedian. There’s also her “successful” stint doing poetry recitals at Eisteddfods, her YouTube famous brother, her father being a lot like Em’s Dad Vincie and her journey to a career in stand up. It’s a delightfully funny ride that you’ll thoroughly enjoy.
